2 Pieces of my heart

                                                                 2 Pieces of my heart

I am sure my heart would die and fade away should anything ever happen to these two pieces of my heart.  They had just received these dresses from their German Oma for their birthdays both of which come in May.  
 
2 Pieces of my heart

 I just love adding pieces of whimsy in my layouts.  Here we have a fun teapot die cut.

 Notice the two heart pieces on the top and bottom corners of the page.  I painted gesso on them then did a subtle inking with pink and blue.  Then I glued butcher's twine on the outer edges. 
 I added yellow element around the page to get your eyes to wander from point a to z.



Thank you for stopping by and seeing what the papers are saying today.  You are awesome and soooo appreciated by this blogger.  See you soon.

I will be entering this layout into the following challenges:

For this challenge I used the number 2 which represents two pieces of my heart(my daughters), and the below sketch.

    This turned out so beautiful. Love the symbolism with the two chipboard heart halves. Also love the way the doilies and napkin-flowers unify the design.

    Kathleen, to be eligible for the twine challenge please make sure and post your layout on Mandi's blogs not the sidebar on Sketch N Scrap, we reserve that for our sketch challenges. Thanks for joining in our birthday bash though, I don't want you to miss out on the prize draw for that specific challenge by posting in the wrong place :o)
